Didn't you know you also have space lasers? Anyone can be instantly vaporized at any point on Earth.

A joke from 1930's Nazi Germany:

"Two Jews are sitting on a bench in Nazi Germany. One of them is reading the local Yiddish newspaper. The other is reading Der Sturmer, a Nazi propaganda paper. The former says to the latter, “Why on earth would you read that antisemitic drek?” The other replies, “Well, when I read the local paper, we are a poor and battered people who suffer in ghettos, pogroms, and all manner of tragedies. But when I read Der Sturmer, we run the banks, the governments, the whole world – life is great!” "

I got a feeling things are going to get really ugly soon, dejavu germany in 1930 but with more powerful propaganda tools.

  • Israel is powerful, but also has powerful enemies. That's entirely consistent and happens to be entirely true.

    And yes, Israel is a tiny country, both compared to almost all its enemies, and just objectively - it's one of the smallest countries in the world.

    • I was calling out the parent for acting with incredulity to someone saying that Israel has a vast spy network. One that is routinely bragged about in Israel by Israelis.
